Thanks for all the answers, though I'm apprehensive as hell now.

East Harlem is fine. I've lived here a little over a year, a few blocks from the address in the original post, and I feel more or less safe. And I am very unassuming, unthreatening-looking. You really shouldn't feel apprehensive, just use common sense (don't walk around drunk, don't look like a victim, etc.).
